I need help solving for x here (I don't get the right answer, which is supposed to be x=0.137)

3.88 = 3.74 + log (x/0.1)

Please explain how you would get that answer

Thank you

Dear Ann,
3.88 = 3.74 + log (x/0.1)
0.14 = log (x/0.1)
10^(0.14) = x/0.1
x = 1.38 x 0.1
x= 0.138

These are the calculation steps. I suppose the answer is 0.138 instead of 0.137.

Ann,do you mind showing your calculation steps so I can know what is your mistakes during the calculation.

Wishing you the best of luck,
Barry
